I'm a big fan of cucumbers. I prefer those with "meat" on them rather than those with that mushy seed stuff in the middle. I didn't do a garden this year but when I do one, cukes are always grown and I pick them before they get too fat and mushy.

Cucumber salad is one of my favs. Sliced cukes, diced onion, pinch of salt, pinch of pepper, pinch of sugar, some vinegar, some dill weed. That's my foundation but I have no specific recipe. I just know how much I like of mixture of stuff that I like. If I have it readily available I'll add some blue cheese or feta cheese crumbles too. Let it marinade over night in the fridge then it's ready to go.

Some folks like slices of radish in it. I'm on board with that. Some like sliced cherry or grape tomatoes added, I'm OK with that since I'll just pick out the tomatoes.

Pickled cukes, commonly known as pickles are a favorite condiment of mine for burgers and stuff. Gotta be dill pickles though. Those sweet or bread and butter pickles (as they call them) could go extinct for all I care.

Some wicked loud and stormy thunder storms passing over the area. Had a big lightning strike pretty close from here just as I type this.

storm made it to my town a while ago.
Still firing away.

By the time we head to da Cape in the AM it will be long gone.
Working on a get together wif the tailgaters...hope so.

Sauteed won out. Sauteed with blackened seasoning. I see left overs in my future today.

Greetings from near the Halltown, MO exit on I-44 East. Glad to finally get out of the Southern California oven.

Taking the wife for her 1st ever archery shooting class at an indoor range. She has wanted to learn to shoot a bow for years. Iffn I still had all my stuff from my bow hunting days, I could teach her all the basics but I figure it's better to use their equipment and air conditioned range. Not sure where this is going but it should be a fun experience.

Hunting wabbits..?? 😕

It’s duck season.
